****THIS SWAP IS NOW CLOSED****
Hi Everyone
The theme for this swap is :

Stitch in Time

We all have those sewing jobs that we like to put off so let's leave them where they are and have some fun with this swap.
Feel free to interpret the Stitch in Time theme any way you like but your ATC must include:

Machine or Hand Stitching, and
Fabric

2. If you commit to the swap please, out of consideration for all the
participants meet the set guidelines.
3. To participate, write a comment to add your name to the list of participants
below and I will email you my address details.
4. Post your ATC's and a stamped self addressed envelope to me on or by

a business week to arrive to me' depending upon where you are located and I

What's an ATC?
An ATC is the acronym for Artist Trading Card.
For anyone new to ATC's it's a small piece of original work that measures 2.5" x 3.5".
There is no right or wrong way to create an ATC - you just need to stick to the
measurements and the rest is up to your imagination.
